Kuranda Envirocare has a few items of equipment and products which can be made available to members of the community.

PlantsTrees for revegetation (tall growers) and garden plantings (small growers) are available. We ask for a donation to cover cost of propagation. We recycle the pots so when you’ve planted return the pots so we can wash and fill them again.

Member discount applies. For those who are revegetating in the Envirolink and Fairyland Corridors, plants are free.
